What is the most annoying poker behavior for you?

Online, because I haven't played live poker. It really annoys me when the time bank drags on; sometimes I just tell myself to calm down because maybe the opponent is playing multiple tables and just doesn't see their turn in time. And then there's the situation when a raising war starts over the pot, and you lose to a runner. Conversations and watching are also on this list, but I don't react to that as much; sometimes it even calms me down because I understand that my actions provoke such a reaction.
 
Basically everything that Martin Kabrehl is doing. He is the role model for annoying behavior in every form.

When an online MTT is in the bubble and running hand by hand and there are short stack people still using all the clock time.
 
Live it would be eating something with greasy fingers and then touching cards or someone talking to me or trying to give me advice (or hurrying me up) when I'm in a hand and trying to figure out strategy or possible outcomes.

Para mim, provavelmente são as pessoas que demoram uma eternidade para tomar uma decisão quando a ação é bastante óbvia. Jogar devagar é uma coisa, mas quando alguém fica sentado em todas as mãos e usa todo o tempo disponível, isso se torna irritante. Perder mãos ruins não me incomoda tanto quanto jogadores lentos, mas o que eu mais detesto é quando alguns jogadores de pavio curto começam a abusar da paciência depois de perder mãas
The people who keep going all in, one after the other with random cards, and still win lol

Online or live, what is the most annoying thing a player can do at the table? What behavior is practically guaranteed to get under your skin?

Why do some poker players get so angry when they lose because of their own mistakes? 🤣

They make bad decisions, lose the hand, and then start insulting others instead of admitting their mistakes.

Honestly, I enjoy beating players like that. The angrier they get, the more entertaining it is for me.... 🤣🤣🤣

People who talk big and insult others when they lose are pretty pathetic. But honestly, their reactions are also quite entertaining to watch... 🤣🤣🤣

Some players really need to learn how to lose with dignity...
 
In online poker, it annoys me the most when a person delays the time to make a decision to drop cards or continue the game, also annoying is the double strike on my rise.
 
The most annoying poker behavior for me is slow rolling. I can accept losing a big pot, even with a bad beat, but there’s no need to disrespect your opponent. Poker is about skill, patience, and respect. A good player should know how to win and lose with class. ♠️
 
I think what bothers me the most is the player who’s at the wrong table—they should be at the roulette wheel—going all-in pre-flop with 10-6 and making ridiculous bets; it’s like they’re disrupting those of us who actually want to play the game.
 
Those who bluff, even if they have a small pair, prefer to go all-in, even if we have good cards and sometimes don't dare to call. That's the kind of people they are.
 
I think the thing that bothers me the most is when I'm betting because I hit well, and they go over-the-top allin with nothing but a Draw and hit it! arggggg!
 
I hate it when someone goes all-in right after I raise 😂 Like bro, can you at least let me see a flop?
 
For me, it's people who keep complaining after every bad beat or slow-playing just to show off. Like bro, it's poker, bad beats happen 😂 Just play the game and move on!
 
I genuinely detest people who over-act. I pride myself on making precise equity calculations and reads but when I run into opponents who make efforts to throw fake tells or overly pretend to be excited for no reason, it messes up my flow because now, my brain is trying to decipher what the performance means instead of focusing on more readable things like bet sizing, position, and actions on the streets
 
Slow rolling has to be one of the most annoying things. There’s no need to drag out the reveal when you already know you’ve got the winning hand.
 
It’s hard to throw me off balance, but there are players who deliberately waste time, and that quite often spoils the experience of the game.
